The perceived loudness change of a change in volume depends
on the listening volume: at high volumes a 1 dB increment is
noticeable, but at low volumes a larger increment is needed
to get a comparable change in loudness.
Perceptual volume adjustment accounts for this fact, and
divides the hardware volume range into a number of steps.
Each step changes the dB volume by a variable amount, with
most of the steps concentrated at higher volumes. This
makes it possible to sweep over the entire hardware volume
range quickly, without losing the ability to finely adjust
the volume at normal listening levels.
Use "Volume Adjustment Mode" in the system settings menu
to select perceptual volume mode. The number of steps used
is controlled by "Number of Volume Steps". (Number of steps
has no effect in direct adjustment mode.)
It's still possible to set a specific dB volume level from
the sound settings menu when perceptual volume is enabled,
and perceptual volume does not affect the volume displayed
by themes.

1) Adds way to pop activity without refreshing the skin at
the same time.
Activities are sometimes popped in immediate succession,
or one activity is popped before another one is pushed right
away. This can lead to the UI appearing glitchy, due to an
activity only appearing for a split-second, which is especially
noticeable with complex skins that change the dimensions
of the UI viewport depending on the current activity
To fix this, prevent superfluous skin updates
* when switching between:
- WPS and browser
- WPS and Playlist Catalogue
- WPS and playlist
- WPS and Settings/System/Plugins
* when accessing Track Info or when displaying
bookmarks using the context menu on the WPS
* when switching from QuickScreen to Shortcuts Menu
2) The playlist viewer activity was pushed & popped
redundantly by playlist_view.
----
NB:
Behavior has remained unchanged in all instances of the
code where pop_current_activity() has been replaced by
pop_current_activity(ACTIVITY_REFRESH_NOW).

Large embedded album art can cause pauses during
playback or when skipping between tracks, especially
on older devices, but embedded art is currently loaded
even when separately stored smaller image files would be
available.
A workaround is to remove large album art from the
metadata of files.
This now adds a setting to either turn off loading of
album art completely, or to prefer loading the album art
from a separate image file and thus ignore the embedded
versions.

In absolute pointing mode, the quickscreen now accepts
a touch anywhere in the middle third of the screen edge
to trigger an item, and pressing anywhere else on the
'grid' will exit -- the same as how 3x3 mode works.
Previously it required a touch inside the text viewport
to trigger an item, and exited after any touch outside
the viewports. This made it very difficult to use since
the text viewports are too small to reliably touch.

The behavior of the top/bottom items is not intuitive when used
with settings like volume or brightness -- pressing up will
actually *decrease* the setting, and down will increase it.
This patch inverts the direction, so the top item will increase
the setting.
The reason for this is that historically, the quickscreen seems
to have had only 3 directions -- left, right, and bottom. Bottom
therefore selected the next value, and when top was introduced
it selected the previous value.
The counter-intuitive nature of this was later reported as a bug
on the Fuze V2 and got an incorrect fix (commit 2271995517) under
the assumption that ASCENDING_INT_SETTINGS was the issue.

I'm currently running up against the limitations of the lcd_draw functions
I want these functions to be able to be used on any size buffer not
just buffers with a stride matching the underlying device
[DONE] allow the framebuffer to be decoupled from the device framebuffer
[DONE need examples] allow for some simple blit like transformations
[DONE] remove the device framebuffer from the plugin api
[DONE}ditto remote framebuffer
[DONE] remove _viewport_get_framebuffer you can call struct *vp = lcd_set_viewport(NULL) and vp->buffer->fb_ptr
while remote lcds may compile (and work in the sim) its not been tested on targets
[FIXED] backdrops need work to be screen agnostic
[FIXED] screen statusbar is not being combined into the main viewport correctly yet
[FIXED] screen elements are displayed incorrectly after switch to void*
[FIXED] core didn't restore proper viewport on splash etc.
[NEEDS TESTING] remote lcd garbled data
[FIXED] osd lib garbled screen on bmp_part
[FIXED] grey_set_vp needs to return old viewport like lcd_set_viewport
[FIXED] Viewport update now handles viewports with differing buffers/strides by copying to the main buffer
[FIXED] splash on top of WPS leaves old framebuffer data (doesn't redraw)
[UPDATE] refined this a bit more to have clear_viewport set the clean bit and have skin_render do its own screen clear
scrolling viewports no longer trigger wps refresh
also fixed a bug where guisyncyesno was displaying and then disappearing
[ADDED!] New LCD macros that allow you to create properly size frame buffers in you desired size without wasting bytes
(LCD_ and LCD_REMOTE_)
LCD_STRIDE(w, h) same as STRIDE_MAIN
LCD_FBSTRIDE(w, h) returns target specific stride for a buffer W x H
LCD_NBELEMS(w, h) returns the number of fb_data sized elemenst needed for a buffer W x H
LCD_NATIVE_STRIDE(s) conversion between rockbox native vertical and lcd native stride (2bitH)
test_viewports.c has an example of usage
[FIXED!!] 2bit targets don't respect non-native strides
[FIXED] Few define snags

As constantly discussed in IRC, it is insane that dirfilter and party mode are defaults on the quickscreen, both have caused countless problems for users accidentaly enabling them.
This wont change anything for users who have changed their setting, only for people who left it default

This happens in Archos Recorder, see quick_screen_f3(), which caused crash
(FS#11037), due to top item not defined.
The commit explicitly sets items[QUICKSCREEN_TOP] to NULL, and also draws an
arrow only if the item is defined.

This adds a 4th top item to the quickscreen. It's as configurable as the existing three items.
This patch goes along with optimisations for small screens for better displaying of all four items. 14px font is very usable on a 64px height display for example.
Left and Top items go through the items in the opposite direction, so that you can mirror a setting and toggle through it in both directions.
Default item is party mode, as it's target independant.
